Tips & Advice

Do beauty salons offer gift certificates?

Yes, many beauty salons offer gift certificates, which allow the holder to purchase goods and services. Beauty salon gift certificates typically have a cash value that indicates the amount of the goods and services that the certificate can purchase. For example, a $50 gift certificate can be used to purchase $50 of goods and services at a salon. The certificate can also be purchased for something specific, like a hairstyle or manicure.

What is the proper amount to tip at a beauty salon?

The proper amount to tip at a beauty salon is 20 percent. This holds true for all services provided at a salon, whether it's a manicure or a haircut. If you've been assisted by more than one professional, you can break the tip down so that everyone you've worked with is compensated. In cases like this, you'll need to specify how much cash goes to each person, or you can simply put the cash in separate envelopes. A tip of $2 to $5 is appropriate for assistants who shampoo and/or prepare your hair for coloring.

How often should hair be cut?

If you want to keep your hair at a set length, it's best to get a cut every four to six weeks. If you're growing your hair out, you can space your haircuts at four- or six-month intervals. Haircuts can help address unsightly split ends, so if your strands have this kind of damage, scheduling a cut may help improve your hair's appearance.

Should customers wash their hair before arriving for a haircut appointment?

Washing your hair before arriving for a haircut appointment might be a good idea if you want the salon to provide a cut and not a wash. In this situation, washing your hair beforehand will eliminate tangles, and this will make it easier for the stylist to work with your hair and give you the cut you desire. Many salons include a wash with the haircut, and, in cases like this, washing your hair before arriving for a haircut appointment might not be necessary. If getting hair colored, it is best to not wash it before the appointment, the color clings better to slightly dirty hair and the dye or bleach might burn your scalp since it won't have the natural oils to protect it.

How far in advance should a beauty salon appointment be booked?

If you want to guarantee a spot on the schedule, it's safest to book your beauty salon appointment days or weeks in advance. This is especially important if you're working with a stylist who has a busy schedule. However, many salons offer same-day appointments. If you're making a same-day appointment, it's best to call first thing in the morning.

I’m a regular here! Lily does my nails and she does an AMAZING job every time. I like my nails pretty long and they always last me. The first time I went was a few years back and tbh I didn’t have that great of an experience. My nails were dope, but the technician kept making comments about how long my nails were and it just got on my nerves. If I’m paying, do then how I want them. Lol. I ended up going back after a few years after a horrible experience at a nail salon not too far from there. This chick was doing my nails all crooked and when I asked if she could fix them, she got mad and cut all my nails off. Instead of beating her ass I let them soak off my nails and left and went gon Diamond Nails. They did a great job on my nails with no complaints and I’ve been a loyal customer to Lily ever since. Nobody else touches my nails, lol. She always does a great job and gives me exactly what I want with no complaints! Their prices are very fair too. Go with her and you won’t be disappointed!

Horrible service! I saw that they wax your eyebrows in the front seat in front of everybody AND my 8 months pregnant sister in law (CLEARY PREGNANT) asked to use their restroom and told them she was hurting and really needing to go. Those f**ktards told her no and that the restroom was for paying customers only! Horrible service! Horrible people! Just down right mean, horrible, sorry, no empathy having, cheap bastards!!!

It is not worth the money. I had my nails done n they overlapped n looked ready to be filled by the following days not even a week n they literally started popping off on there own. The design she said she could do look like a kid did it. No wonder no one is ever their. Don't waste your money.
